Could this work of art kill England's World Cup Bid?
OK so perhaps the title is a tad hyperbolic, but really things are getting ridiculous. A quick
refresher course for those of you who have missed this: England (as you all should know) is bidding
to host the 2018 World Cup. Recently there was a conference in London at which Jack Warner, a FIFA
vice-president, was present.

As mentioned earlier on my Twitter feed today has been a slow day due to some bad headaches on
my end. I won't go into it much but I am feeling a little better after some medicine kicked in here
(thanks to the few who asked). I didn't have much planned for tonight but I did want to get into
the coaching carousel that is going on in Major League Soccer.

I hope everyone is getting use to the longer days again after the time change this weekend.
Nothing like getting darker a bit earlier again here but that's just how it goes. I have a few
goodies to discuss tonight leading off with a big time look at something former Chicago Fire GM
Peter Wilt sent Alexi Lalas a few years back.

Well, at least that's what Drew over at WVHooligan says:
7. Crew Stadium – Being the original it gets a little more love from me. I know it lacks a lot
of goodies but at the end of the day I think it will end up being the Fenway Park of MLS. Though in
some thoughts I don't know how good of a thing that will actually be.

time, a few items probably won't be settled today, But I know how much you all love waiting!

plain rude.

Often it takes a young player some time to settle in at Arsenal. They need to get to know the way the club operates, its values, its traditions, the rivalries and such.
This does not seem to apply to Carlos Vela who wrote himself into the book of legendary Arsenal quotes without so much as kicking a ball for us yet.
